The Whitworth Award

The Whitworth Award for Education Research was first presented in 1967, and was made possible through a generous financial donation by Dr. Fred Whitworth, a former Director of the Canadian Council for Research in Education. It has, since then, recognized individuals who have made a sustained and substantial contribution to educational research over a period of time.

The next Whitworth Award for Education Research will be awarded in 2013, please check back to the CEA website in the spring of 2013 for more detailed information.
